Project Management Institute (PMI)
Practical Application of Generative AI for Project Managers is a free course from PMI, online. It takes about 5 hours and ends with a free CPD certificate.
We rate it intermediate level; the provider doesn't say.
Suits project managers who already use AI tools and want to apply them across eight project areas, from stakeholders to uncertainty. It stands out on value: free with a PMI account, hands-on, and it earns 5 PDUs. The main caveat is that PMI doesn't state prerequisites, and it is pitched at intermediate level. A structured alternative is Generative AI for Project Managers Specialization from IBM on Coursera, listed as 4 weeks at 10 hours a week, though it can't be taken for free.
